SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Government Securities Act of 1986
established a federal system of regulation of brokers and dealers,
including banks and other financial institutions, who deal in or broker
government securities. The Form G-FIN and Form G-FINW are used by
insured State nonmember banks that are government securities brokers or
dealers to notify the FDIC of their status or that they have ceased to
function as a government securities broker or dealer. The Form G-FIN-4
is used by associated persons of insured State nonmember banks that are
government securities brokers or dealers to provide certain information
to the bank and to the FDIC concerning employment, residence, and
statutory disqualification. The Form G-FIN-5 is used by insured State
nonmember banks that are government securities brokers or dealers to
notify the FDIC that an associated person is no longer associated with
the government securities broker or dealer function of the bank. All
these reports are required and authorized by law (15 U.S.C. 780-4 as
amended by the Government Securities Act of 1986).
